writeTemplates: Write Acoustic Templates to Text Files

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Description

These functions write all templates within a template list to text files within a specified directory.

Usage

1
2
writeCorTemplates(..., dir = ".", ext = "ct", parallel = FALSE)
writeBinTemplates(..., dir = ".", ext = "bt", parallel = FALSE)

Arguments

...

One or more template lists.

dir

A file path to the directory where the files should be saved. If it doesn't exist, the function will create it. By default, the working directory.

ext

The file extension used for the new file(s).

parallel

Set to TRUE to use mclapply from the parallel package to speed up the call for large template lists (not available for Windows operating systems).

Details

For correlation templates (class corTemplateList) use writeCorTemplates, and use writeBinTemplates for binary templates (class linkS4class{binTemplateList}). To write only some of the templates in a list to file, use indexing ([-methods).

Value

NULL, invisibly.
